[QUOTE="ThrdKllr, post: 1699144, member: 110734"] Anneal and use enough lube. I was having problems with the Imperial and went back to RCBS lube and pad and now all good. If the case doesn't go in to the die smoothly and come out smoothly, you're going to get variations. If it makes any noise going in or out, that's chatter and it will vary the setback. Even if it takes a lot of pressure it needs to be smooth. Also sorting cases by how many times they have been fired and loaded will help with the consistency. I use a Wilson F/L bushing die without the bushing for sizing the case and a Lee Collet Die to size the necks. The expander ball coming out of the neck can stretch the case or pull the shoulder out and give varying measurements. [/QUOTE]
